Chapter 536: Sacrifice! Life and Death!

Translator: Translation NationEditor: Translation Nation

This terrible roar was very familiar.

Marvin had heard it in the depths of the Wilderness Hall.

But this time, the power contained in the roar seemed a lot more powerful.

It sounded like a beast gradually awakening.

The Wilderness God!

Even though Marvin was in Stealth, his speed was still extraordinary. He rushed to the edge of the cliff, overlooking the entire dungeon.

The other two also caught up just behind him.

The three stood side by side on the cliff, watching the shocking ritual that was taking place in the center of the dungeon!

”No good, he already started!” Minsk's eyes were very sharp, allowing him to clearly see what was happening on the public square.

Marvin's heart was beating very fast.

He also saw the array.

On the square with Miss Silvermoon's statue, a huge array had already been set up.

A rare jewel, a magic plant emitting an evil aura, tools containing all kinds of colored liquids... They were arranged in a certain pattern, forming the array.

When seen from the cliffside, it seemed to be a very simple design.

A six-pointed star.

The original symbol of magic.

Marvin recognized this array.

It had a very simple name, [Life and Death].

The upper part of the six-pointed star seemed to be painted spotlessly white, but after looking at it carefully, it could be seen that it was actually wiggling grass.

That grass' color was clearly very special. Who knew where Lich Bandel got them from?

The lower part was pitch-black, and it was also made up of the special wiggling grass.

The ritual tools were set up on the edge.

The tall Two-Headed Bone Dragon standing guard over the array. Lich Bandel had already turned into a black fog and was frantically flying along the edge of the array, making final arrangements.

The Jade Banshee was helping him finishing up.

What worried the three on the cliff was the coffin they saw at one end of the array.

Bandel had obtained the Divine Source spark from the Life Severing Ivies, and it was now floating peacefully in the coffin.

That roar had also come from the coffin.

Given such circumstances, even a fool could guess that the Wilderness God's slumbering body was in that coffin.

Only in that way could the spark used as a seed of resurrection calm down.

Surprisingly, on the other end of the six-pointed star was the statue of Miss Silvermoon!

'Hold on… What's going on with that guy?' Marvin felt rather startled when he noticed the arrangement.

When he came here last time, he had heard some things, clues that suggested that Bandel was very infatuated with Miss Silvermoon.

But based on the array before him, Miss Silvermoon statue's location was shockingly in the [Death] location, while the Wilderness God's coffin was standing in the regular resurrection location!

This made Marvin feel puzzled.

Could that guy really want to just resurrect the Wilderness God?

Apart from those two, there was a surprising silhouette in the center of the array.

The young girl, Molly!

The girl that Paladin Griffin had sworn to protect.

She seemed to be in a bad state. Apparently, the power of the curse was flaring.

Marvin frowned and asked, ”Why does this array require Molly?”

Hathaway said, ”The [Life and Death] array needs a medium. That girl's body is very special. When there is a lack of energy, her hidden treasure might be able to charge the array. Her constitution is also very suitable for handling the conflict of Life and Death.”

”Her condition looks terrible. Regardless of the outcome of the ritual, she might die soon!”

Marvin's heart tightened. He looked around.

Molly wasn't the only one brought here by Bandel. Isabelle was also there!

But soon, Marvin felt somewhat relieved.

Isabelle had been bound by a special method of the Lich and was standing outside the array, like she was really being treated as a ”spectator”.

She seemed helpless, but fortunately, she wasn't part of the array, so she wouldn't be harmed by it.

With this in mind, Marvin checked the array once more.

Besides the tools, the most important thing the Lich prepared was a crimson stone.

That crimson stone was wrapped in a huge piece of amber.

When the Lich took the amber from a different dimension, the entire space shivered.

The continuously roaring voice in the coffin also started trembling. It was quite clear that the Wilderness God was longing for this stone!

”This is the Death Vessel.”

”The energy of those who died in the Autumn Hunting Ground and the Legends who had been sucked dry coalesced into that stone through a sacrificial ritual.”

”The power in that stone is too frightening, and thus it needs the [Origin Amber] as a seal. No wonder the Wilderness Hall weakened after he left. Bandel took the core of the Wilderness Hall with him!”

Without waiting for Marvin to ask, Minsk explained what he knew.

As it turned out, the energy obtained by Bandel in the Hunting Ground was all in this Death Vessel.
